President Bola Tinubu has assured the reappointed Director General of the World Trade Organization, WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala of Nigeria’s continued .

Tinubu gave the assurance while congratulating Okonjo-Iweala on her unanimous re-election as WTO DG.

Okonjo-Iweala made history in 2021 as the first African and first woman to lead the 164-nation-member WTO.

Her first term as the seventh Director-General of the WTO will expire on August 31, 2025, while her second term begins on September 1.

Tinubu said Okonjo-Iweala’s unanimous appointment for a second four-year term demonstrates the trust and confidence the international community places in her leadership.

He disclosed this in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga.

The statement reads: “President Bola Tinubu congratulates Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former Coordinating Minister for the Economy and Minister of Finance, on her unanimous re-election today as the Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO).

“The renowned development economist and global finance expert made history in 2021 as the first African and first woman to lead the 164-nation-member WTO.


Her first term as the seventh Director-General of the WTO will expire on August 31, 2025, while the second term begins September 1.

“The Nigerian leader notes with delight that Dr Okonjo-Iweala’s unanimous appointment for a second four-year term demonstrates the trust and confidence the international community places in her leadership to advance multilateral trade for sustainable global development.


President Tinubu is confident that her continued leadership will strengthen the international economic organisation’s role as a critical pillar of inclusive global economic growth and good governance in the next four years.

"As a committed member of the WTO, ECOWAS, and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), Nigeria will continue to the WTO’s mission to foster a fair, inclusive, and equitable multilateral trading system.


President Tinubu assures Okonjo-Iweala of Nigeria’s steadfast as she consolidates her bold reforms, dedication to equitable global trade practices, and tireless efforts to promote international cooperation."

She has not needed Tinubu or Nigeria's to get this far. In fact, Mrs Okonjo-Iweala left the World Bank to serve Nigeria during the Obasanjo and Jonathan istrations. She gave to Nigeria as evidenced by our total debt cancellation and other positive economic gains.

It is not your useless but her excellence in her duties that has brought her to where she is today. Mrs Okonjo-Iweala will be well advised to steer clear of all things Tinubu and his incompetent, nepotistic and corruption-ridden misrule.

Be there and be deceiving yourself while in real life market women are planning to beat him to stupor for being a complete failure and disappointment.
